Pregnancy is a good time to start making lifestyle changes that you can carry into new-mamahood, especially if trying to live a greener life is new for you. So print the calendar and get a tip a day for the month of April on how to get started.

Visit the library -- instead of buying a copy of What to Expect (which you may only dip into periodically instead of reading throughout your pregnancy) or a prenatal yoga DVD, borrow them and other preggo resources from your local library.

Hang your laundry -- did you know your clothes dryer is one of the biggest energy-suckers in your house? Once you have the baby (as people are telling you over and over again now), you'll have way more laundry. So try to adjust to using the dryer less or not at all now. Buy an inexpensive clothes-drying rack or hang lines outside and you'll already be in the groove once baby and all of those burp cloths are here.
